I have already helped change the world in small but effective ways. I anticipate a few more opportunities to do so to come my way in the coming years.
& I don't just mean the "pass it on" type of change. I don't intend the "every child is a hope for the future" sort of change, though goodness knows I've done those too. No I mean the "everybody's life is better for my having been there & done what I've done" type of change. & you can do it too.
Sometimes it happens because you just happened to be in the right place & know the right people, & sometimes it happens because it's an integral step towards a larger goal that you are part of a larger group working for an ideal. Either way, we can all do something to make the world a better place or we can fight the inevitable.
Just take a look at the world & say: "What does the world need, & what can I do about it?" and get busy.
